The Conservatives have failed to topple the Liberal minority government.
On Thursday, Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre attempted to pass a vote of non-confidence over the planned carbon tax increase.
The Liberals, NDP and Bloc Quebecois all voted against Poilievre’s motion.
It was expected to fail with the Liberal-NDP coalition having a combined 181 seats, with 169 needed for a majority vote.
This year’s carbon tax increase is set to rise by about 3 cents on April 1st , or 3.3 cents on gas and 2.9 cents per cubic metre on natural gas.
